ANOTHER BLOW TO MoGLYNN
SUSPENSION or "THE CATHOLIC HERALD.

SUSPENSION OF THE CATHOLIC HERALD.s
NOTHING OFFICIAL RECEIVED FROM ROME IN Rr
GARD TO THE DoCToR's EXPULSION.
The announcement made yesterday that sThe
Catholic Herald of this city had been compelled
to suspend publication was o surprise to many
and matter of great regret to the friends of Dr.
McGlynn. They had reason to feel sorry since
it was almost the only Catholic paper In the
country that. espousing his cause at the outset,
had maintained 1t with vigor despite the warning
Of Archbishop Corrigan and the active opposition
Of other Catholic prelates, priests and their SYM
pathizers here and elsewhere.
At frstit was reported that the paper had sus-
suspended permanently, but last evening Mr.
O'Loughlin, the editor and publisher, said that he
expected to bc able to overcome his financial
difficulties and resume publication without missing
moro than one issue-that of last week. The chief
cause of this trouble. he said. arose from the
course which he had adopted In regard to Dr.
McGlynn, bringing against the paper as it had the
power of the church authorities, or at least the
great majority of them.
Tho Herald" first began to attract general
attention shortly after Dr.. McGlynn's suspension.
IL was started In Boston about 1880. 1t never
attained much more than local circulation there.
In the fall Of 1888 Mr.. O'Loughlin, who OF tho
time was Catholic book publisher, bought the
paper and moved the plant to this city. Tho
concern was then made stock company including
about twenty Catholic priests Of the city among
shareholders and directors. The Rev DR.. Burt
sell, Of the Church Of the Epiphany. was the
president, and the Rev. William Z. Farrell vice
president Other stockholders were Father Cotton.
Dr. McGlynn's successor In st. Stephens Father
salter, of St Joseph's; Father Brophy, of the
Sacred Heart Father Mcmahon, of ST. Gabriel's;
the Rev. Dr. Wall. Father Cunnion and Father
Campbell Of Port Richmond, Staten Island Nearly
all Of these withdrew some time ago. IT. was
intended that the paper should represent the
broader and more progressive element Of the
Catholic Church In this country, while at the
same time IL would be thoroughly orthodox on all
matters of faith and morals
The paper met with fair success among Catholic
generally but especially with those inclined ts be
Independent In their views. Its policy though
liberal was sufficiently conservative to keep 1t In
favor with the authorities of the church until the
trouble with Dr.. McGlynn began last fall. Then
"Ihe Herald came out boldly in his support,
denouncing his suspension by Archbishop Corri-
gan and declaring that the summons calling him
to Rome to answer for his political opinions
outrage upon his rights as an American citizen.
these and similar views held by the doctor and
his advocates were maintained with such foroe
and earnestness that they began to attract great
deal of attention. Archbishop Corrgan finding
that unlike some of the other Catholic papers that
had sided with the doctor, it continued TO espouss
his cause with increased ardOr, sent on April Ii
